Two weeks in and there was no sign of Taehyung in the campus. Worried, Jimin has been blowing up his phone like the past few days. Yoongi was not a guy to pry but it worries him as much as he did not want to show it.

Playing it cool as usual, he let Jimin do the deed. "For the nth time Shorty, you should stop." Taehyung whispered to buzzing device before he switched it off completely. Jimin was not the only one. Yuki, Koosung and everyone worried had been calling.

Taehyung didn't have it in him.

He'd rather concentrate on the journal among the many others to read than statiate someone else's boredom with his miseries.

8th of March, 1992

Chae's still recovering. Mummy and Daddy say she's carrying a child and as stubborn as she gets she's not willing to give it up. Daddy means good for her but he's just . . . not good with words.

I'll be marrying the love of my life and I'll have my dream fulfilled though having the likes of Captain Eagle being my head scares me off. He should put a happy face sometimes.

He's so beautiful. He's unreal. I will always love him as my own.

Kim Seokjin. This tiny being made such a huge impact on Junhyun. I thought he might have a cold feet but my man said to me that — "I always tried when it came to you and when Chae delivers the baby, I will try for him too. I'll never let go when what we share makes me a better person."

That was the day I knew, I made the best decision to let that man into my life.

Something about that stirred in Taehyung. His heart raced for the first time in two weeks. Sure, there were other moments in those memories when he simply smiled, all engrossed in reading the journal.

What he learnt best was that, Kim Zia was an epitome of compassion, empathy and all virtues he discovered in . . . Every time he leafed through a page and felt any emotion, Taehyung had his mind slipping elsewhere. Was there any moment like this when —
